Delhi Women's Prison.

"Hurry up and get your filthy useless selves out of the bathroom. " A well built woman in a prison guard uniform yelled at the women taking their baths.

Everyone in the bathroom run out naked except for one and the woman frown and walked up to her and yanked her hair.

"You witch....... It seems you haven't learnt your lesson. "

The woman glared at the guard who laughed and pushed her onto the floor and pulled out her belt from her trouser and started whipping her making her scream in pain as she lifted her head expecting help from the others but saw a petrified look on their faces and cried out for help thinking the other guards will come to her rescue but no one care or dare move.

"Thakur maa please spare her for now...... She is new here that's why she doesn't know the rules. " One of the elderly prisoners begged and she stopped and walked out after spitting on the woman on the floor who had the mark of the belts all over her body.

Everyone walked away leaving her and the elderly woman who pleaded on her behalf.

She helped the woman up and covered her with a torn towel but the woman threw it away with a disgusted look on her face and the elderly woman shook her head as she picked up the towel.

"If you want to survive here, then you better obey Thakur maa........ You must be Sheetal and if I were you I will behave...... I heard you are on the list of the special treatment prisoners and don't let the name fool you into thinking you will be treated like a queen because people on that list have have it worse than all of us and it looks like she hasn't seen the list yet....... Everyone on that list is a target by everyone even the lowest ranking prisoners because no one will defend you and you are always wrong even of you are right...... Start behaving well starting from now or else you will join the others in solitude confinement."

The elderly woman warned walked out leaving the woman in tears and shaking in pain.

"Khushi, this is all your fault........ Because of you I am here and I won't spare you........ I don't care how long it takes but I Sheetal Kapoor will make you and the Raizada family pay dearly. "

The rage in her eyes will even make the devil shiver and vacate his throne for her to sit and rule hell.

Flashback.

Sheetal was stunned and petrified seeing Katha and Preeto with a smug look on their faces together with the director of the orphanage at Ooty where Aarav was adopted.

"Hello hi bye bye who are they and Katha what are you doing with them? " Mami asked curiously staring at Katha who walked up to them but halted and stood in front of Sheetal who gulped seeing her smirking.

"Miss Kapoor, are you going to tell them who I am, how we know each other or should I be the one to do everyone the favor of exposing you. ? " Katha's words exuded challenge and this confused everyone except the ladies because Katha was always shy and really quiet. "Don't worry I will show them who you are and how I know you. "

Katha walked up to the television mounted in the hall for Nani and Mami you watch their daily dramas.

The video of Sheetal paying Katha for information played and everyone turned to Sheetal fuming and Sheetal wished she would just vanish.

"I know a lot of you don't know me because my work as a private investigator always keeps me away from home but my name is Preeto and I am friends with Payal and Khushi and this woman here is a fraud who unfortunately for her hired me to have a background check on all of you because of her hidden agenda. " Preeto went ahead and exposed all of Sheetal's conspiracy to them and turned pointing to the director whom a confused Aarav was hugging. "Khushi wanted me to go ahead and investigate and I found the director who will confirm Sheetal wanted to pass off Aarav as ASR's son. "

"She would have succeeded if I haven't found out she stole toothbrush and hair samples from our room and she hadn't made the mistake of hiring preeto then she would have succeeded." Khushi revealed and walked up to the television and inserted a pendrive which showed Sheetal sneaking into their room and into the bathroom and came back hiding something in her bag.

Khushi walked up to Sheetal with her arms folded.

"You thought you could come to my house, snatch and harass my family, then you are wrong....... I already knew who you were even before you entered this house with your fake sob story......... You are vile woman and the story about Arnav sleeping with you is termed correctly as rape and you will go to jail for it and also for trespassing, harassment, fraud and falsifying and tempering with a DNA test....... You are going to jail Sheetal. "

Aarav hearing this rushed up to Sheetal and hugged her wailing and everyone felt sorry for the innocent boy who had been dragged into the game of a vile woman like Sheetal.

"Mummy please tell me they are lying and I am your son and the son of ASR........ You had to leave me at the orphanage because you couldn't take care off me....... That's the truth maa. "

Everyone had tears in their eyes seeing how broken Aarav was.

Sheetal felt annoyed but everyone felt sorry for him especially Khushi who knew this will scar him for life.

Sheetal pushed Aarav and he stumbled backwards about to hit his head on the floor but Preeto was there on time and caught him as a crying and shaking Aarav buried his face into her chest wailing loudly as she rubbed his back.

Khushi marched up to Sheetal and slapped her and a shocked Sheetal held her abused cheek staring at Khushi in shock.

She shuddered seeing the look of rage in her eyes and tried running away but Lavanya tripped her making her fall.

"Not on my watch you evil demon. " Lavanya yelled as she kicked Sheetal who screamed in pain at Lavanya kicking her in the stomach. "I already suspected you to be a fraud because you behaved just like my parents and today I thank God for giving me such ugly, cold hearted people like them as parents because it helped me see who is good and who is not and Khushi and Payal confirming my suspicion of you made me know I wasn't wrong...... Shame on you. "

Lavanya yanked her hair and slapped her as the others stood in shock hearing Lavanya also knew about Sheetal.

Payal walked nodded at Khushi who walked up to Sheetal and grabbed her hair as they both took turned slapping Sheetal who bounced back and forth between the sisters with her cheeks burning.

Lavanya even though in her wheelchair also kicked Sheetal when she fell as everyone watch in satisfaction seeing the beating she was getting from the trio.

Arnav, Akash and Nk had to jump in and restrain them because they didn't want them getting into trouble with the law because of a demon like Sheetal.

Nani walked up to Sheetal and slapped her hard sending her onto the floor with her mouth bleeding.

"You deserve to rot in prison and if I am capable of doing the same to a child I once loved then imagine what I would do to you. "

Sheetal was confused hearing Nani's words but Mami's words broke her thought ceasing her ability to process Nani's words.

"Hello hi bye bye...... Sasuma don't make this vile woman poison you with anger...... she is not worth it. " Mami exclaimed in disgust directed at Sheetal who stood up now angry.

"Enough...... So what if I decieved all of you...... I just wanted money that's all...... You people are greedy and just because I want some money, you don't have to abuse me for this after all it won't hurt you pockets to give a few millions as compensation for all the money I wasted on this stupid plan to trap Arnav. "

Everyone was stunned by her audacity and lack of empathy for the damage she had caused Aarav who held on to Preeto's neck not wanting to let go and sobbing.

The police showered and Sheetal finally realised they were not joking when they mentioned jail.

Another slapped gifted by Khushi echoed in the hall for the last time as the police dragged Sheetal out of RM cussing and trying to escape but she was no match for the police.

Within a month, she was sentenced to ten years for fraud and child abuse and six years for the alleged rape of Arnav...... Her lawyer couldn't defend her seeing the undeniable videos and testimonies from Aarav, the director, Katha and Preeto's investigation which revealed Sheetal was notoriously known for sleeping and trapping rich married men with her beauty and later blackmailing them with videos and pictures she took of them with her.

Sheetal would have gotten a life sentence if those men had testified but to save their families and reputations, they refused.

Two weeks after her sentence,she was transfered to the prison.

Flashback ends.

Sheetal angrily put on her uniform and limped out of her cell to the dining room of the prison.

She walked up to the food table with an old silver platter and she gagged seeing the food available but she knew she had no other choice so she begrudgingly accepted the food the grumpy chef gave her.

She walked up to one of the empty chair and was about to sit when someone pushed her sending her food and herself onto the floor as she groan in pain.

"Know you place witch. " A prisoner said as she sat down with her gang laughing at Sheetal who remembered the old woman's words and decided not to confront them.

She was a walking away when she head a familiar name on the television at the far right corner of the dinning room.

Breaking News.

The successful show which was a merge between the largest textile company in Asia M&K Textiles had a bonus of happiness when it was announced and reveal to belong to Khushi Kumari Gupta Singh Raizda, the heiress to the textile company and multiple real estates and resorts in and out of the country....... The couple got married a few months ago in the presence of family and friends and according to our sources, ASR and his now wife will soon marry again soon. "

Sheetal was tuned out the words of the news and started raging hearing they were not only married but Khushi was also an heiress to a billion dollars fortune.

"That greedy witch...... She has all this money and that of Arnav and  she still had me arrested...... You w...... "

Sheetal's eyes widened in shocked seeing a familiar prisoner in hand cuffs on her hand and feet being lead to another table in the far right corner of the dining hall.

"Anjali? " She exclaimed in shock and confusion not understanding why Anjali was in prison and also in cuffs within the prison.

"I heard she tried to kill her sister in law and framed her husband for sexually harassment. " Sheetal turned to find the elderly woman from earlier behind her. "She has been in solitude confinement since she came and only comes out to eat or wash the dishes...... If you don't behave you will end up like her. "

The elderly woman walked away leaving Sheetal in shock and she remembered Nani's words.

"You deserve to rot in prison and if I am capable of doing the same to a child I once loved then imagine what I would do to you. "

"So this was what Nani was talking about....... Wow Sheetal you hit the jackpot........ I have to get closer to Anjali after all we all have enemies in common. " Sheetal thought with a huge smile on her face as she had found an accomplice in her revenge against Khushi and the Raizadas.

RM.

Arnav walked out of the bathroom after having his bath to find the bed empty.

"Happy birthday to you..... Happy birthday to you..... Happy birthday dear Ladoo, happy birthday to you. "

Arnav smiled seeing his wife looked ethereal as always holding a small cup cake with candles on it.

She moved closer and signalled him to blow it and he did just that.

Khushi snaked one as around his neck and pecked his lips.

"Nani said you have never celebrated your birthday for over a decade now but that change from now on....... You will celebrate it with me forever now have a bite. "

Arnav smiled and took a bite but frown making Khushi let go off him and stared at him and back to the cupcake.

She took a little bit and looked back at Arnav who still had a frown on his face.

"It taste okay and I used a sugarfree mix to back it so why are you frowning like that. " Khushi asked annoyed and Arnav pulled her into his hard chest and with one hand guide the rest of the cake into her mouth and he kissed her sucking it out of her mouth.

Khushi was stunned by this and was about to scold him but she looked up to find a mischievous smile playing on his lips.

"Now it tastes delicious. "

Khushi hit his chest and he let out a loud laughter and hugged her inhaling her sweet scent.

"I love Khushi...... I don't know what I would have done without you....... You came into my life and always make it good and feel it with happiness. "

Khushi smiled hearing this but it dropped as she felt a wet sensation on her back and broke the hug only to find Arnav crying and she cupped her face.

"Thank you for loving me with all my flaws...... Thank you for letting know I can change for the better...... Thank you for making me realise love is not what I thought my parents had but what we have........ I don't know it I can ever live without...... I don't want to live in a world without you....... I love you so much. "

By now Khushi was also crying hearing his confession and hugged him.

"I love you too Ladoo. "

Arnav smiled through his tears and said a silent prayer of thanks to God for giving him Khushi.

After a few minutes of composing themselves Khushi led Arnav down with the whole family present and the hall decorated for his birthday party.

"Hello hi bye bye....... I need er thought I will one day make preparations for Arnav birthday. " Mami cried out and Arnav walked up to her and hugged her.

Everyone wished him a happy birthday and the doorbell rang as HP rushed and opened it revealing Shyam and Pihu who are surprised seeing the decorations.

"Am sorry for interrupting the celebrations....... Pihu wanted to see Kiara and I forgot today was Arnav's birthday." Shyam apologized but Arnav stopped him and invited him to join them.

The celebrations began unknown to them that soon a tragedy will rock their peaceful world.
